I've started looking through the Research course on Blackboard...and I am very glad that I opted to wait on Vulnerable Populations. This course looks like it's going to be a lot of reading. It's also going to be a lot of group work, which may or may not be a good thing. In History part 1, it was a good thing. In History part 2, it was not. Hopefully the people in Research will not be as burnt out as those in the History classes were.
I updated my calendar with all of the tasks and due dates, and my calendar is now a sea of blue.
I'm usually pretty strict about not doing schoolwork when class isn't in session, as that's the time I use to recharge my batteries and enjoy the peace before the insanity begins. However, I think for this class I will make an exception and start tomorrow...especially since I have to read 6 or 7 chapters just for week 1 alone.
In other news, I'm not sure if having a comment in the top 5 comments for a Daily Mail article is a noteworthy thing...but there it is. No, I didn't use the name Meriwhen so you will have to speculate what I said and where I said it.
